User:Bruce Kendall/Buckmasters of Maryland, Pennsylvania and Ohio

Watchers

[Pick up with J R - p. 10 of 1850 census.]

The line I'm working on can be traced back to Coshocton County, Ohio, at the 1850 census. Beyond that the trail becomes more obscure, because Ohio didn't record births and deaths that early.

There are two compiled genealogies that are relevant: *Buckmasters in America* and one on the Barnes family. However, I haven't seen these (just snippets quoted on online trees) and I don't know how they are reliable they are. So here I'll compile what records we have.

Buckmasters in Salt Creek, Wayne, Ohio

In the 1820's the only Buckmasters are only in one community. The heads of household are:

  • Joseph
  • Wilson
  • Wilson, Jr.
  • John
  • Joshua
  • Richard

Let's try to trace these people (and their families) through the census from 1790 to 1850

Henry Barnes, a native of Maryland, immigrated to Wayne county in 1811, settling on the farm now owned by Gilbert Searight. He died March 19, 1848. He had the following children : Peter, Catharine, Robert, Hugh, Boston F., Jesse, William, Lucinda and William H.,five of whom are living.

Reminiscences of his Son, Peter Barnes. — I was born February 8, 1805, in Beaver county, Pa., and came to Wayne county with my father in 1811. I have been a farmer and school-teacher — taught my first school in 1826 — had a good English education. I was married January 6, 1831, to Margaret Guthrie, and had seven children, viz: Joseph M., Henry C, Mary J., Eli S., Catharine, William G., and Maggie E. I am a member of the Presbyterian church. My impression is that James Sorrels, a native of Pennsylvania, was the first Justice of Saltcreek township, and that Richard Buckmaster was the second. The Buckmasters, Joseph, Wilson, Joshua, Richard and John, came to Saltcreek township in the fall of 1813. It was necessary in those days for some people to be whipped, and the Buckmasters could do it. Henry Buckmaster, M. D., was born in Saltcreek township, read medicine in Millersburg, became Probate Judge of Wayne county, went to Missouri and died there. William Truesdale came to the township in 1815. Mary, Hugh, James W., Mary, Jane, Phoebe, Elizabeth, John and David were his children. Caleb Brown, the Dunhams, Hatfields, Traceys, Johnstons, Thompsons, Hutchisons, Lytles, Caldwells, were early settlers. Eliza Searight was the first person who died in the present limits of Saltcreek township ; Sarah Willowby the first person who was buried in the Presbyterian graveyard, and John Hamilton and Margaret Castor the first couple married.
